Question 219508: Consider the system y = a and x = b where a and b are real numbers. Is this system
dependent or independent? Is it consistent or inconsistent? Describe the system. If it is
consistent, what is the solution?

This system is consistent and independent since the solution is (b,a).

Example: If x=2 and y=3 the solution is (2,3) which means that it is consistent and independent.
